muzzlehatch (4424), Burlington, Vermont, USA Jan 1, 2004 Excellent oaky nature to this malty, well-balanced octoberfest; a bit yeasty and "chunky" but I like it that way. Dry and slightly smoky/woody feel at the front, nice malt throughout, dry again at the finish. A great session beer from one of New England's best purveyors of session beers. MartinT (4241), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Oct 14, 2003 Dry orange peels sprinkled over dirty yeast...Some astringency hovers around chunky, resinous hops...A tasty moment for the masses... Vac (2184), San Diego, California, USA Sep 25, 2003 Pours with a deep amber/red body topped by a thick off white head with lots of lacing. Slightly sweet malt aroma with a slight grainy note and a touch of hop. Not much aroma to this beer. Sweet malty flavor with a slight fruitiness. The finish is clean and crisp. Light to medium bodied and smooth.
